signatures corrupt in Mail

Leroy,

For your information...

THIS fixed it, an old post, 2017, in Apple Communities about the same issue in El Capitan:

• Quit Mail.
• System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Drive > Options... > Turn Mail OFF (Important: this is NOT the first Mail you see, in the main iCloud window, this is the Mail in the iCloud Drive options window).
• Open Mail.
• Make the changes to your email signatures.
• Quit Mail to save the changes.
• Reopen Mail to check your changes are still there, then quit again.
• System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Drive > Options... > Turn Mail ON (Important: this is NOT the first Mail you see, in the main iCloud window, this is the Mail in the iCloud Drive options window...).
• Open Mail and your changes should still be there.

I have tried the safe mode option, no help or change.

I have also created a second Admin account and the issue appears there as well...

I have just reinstalled Monterrey 12.4, no changes with that either....

any other ideas?

This was a great idea.

I have been focused on the plist area as it is clear to me that the program is not allowing "write" permissions to the files otherwise it would save the changes.

Alas, it did not resolve the issue.

I will escalate to support.

thanks,

gordon
